Most websites work without the www because the actual website masks to
the WWW name, example.  I type newegg.com and it resolves to www.newegg.com.

My DNS server and internet explorer tell it that I am trying to go to
www.newegg.com even though I enter newegg.com

Some websites do not have this luxury and will not work unless you put
the www in it.
The CTRL+enter works well, its easier to type ebay and hit crtl+enter
then it is to type ebay.com

as far as your computer and earthlink go...
Make sure you have the updated internet explorer, should be version 7,
check this by going to "Help" and "About Internet Explorer"

I have windows XP SP2 with Internet explorer 7 and I can type
newegg.com and get www.newegg.com.   This should work on all
computers.  You might want to check with Earthlink's DNS team and make
sure they are resolving www. addresses to the right ones.  They may
have "Half-assed" it and not written the rules...
